The fact that people were getting wiped out left and right made it look even more chaotic. However, even though it looked like a crazy brawl, it was still pretty restrained - I've been in a crowd of mostly families when 12 wrestlers were having a building-wide weapons brawl, and that's the scariest moment I've experienced at a wrestling show.

Yeah I can see that as being a tad more frightening than what Death Rey and Hamada had going.

Hamada/DEL Rey topped Wesna/Melissa or Wesna/Nikita at ChickFight for me in terms of personal fear, mainly because of the guardrail and number of people in one place meaning nobody had anywhere to go when they came our way.

I don't think Hamada/Rey could have been quite as frightening as Wesna/Nikita's ChickFight Rules match, simply for the pure fact of Wesna dragging Nikita by the hair and pushing tables shouting "MOVE" with frustration.

That sounds kind of scary. For me personaly the scariest moment for me at a live event was in Puerto Rico when Konnan hit Stacy Colon(Carlito and Primo sister) with a guitar cracking her head open in the greatest heel turn I have ever seen. The riot police had to be called to take Konnan out of the building. It was really scary. PM me if you want the link.
Anyways, back to SHIMMER. The thought of Death Rey and Hamada coming my way in a brawl is pretty scary.

Lol speaking of craziness, remember the old lady who almost got knocked out by that chair from Wesna/Melissa? Lucky for her that guy was like a ninja and grabbed it mid air.

Sadly Del Rey and Ayako didn't put me in harms way, besides standing on top of a chair to see the action. I did see one dude take a bad wipe out.
Pro-Tip I learned from Japanese shows: If you're in your chair and there's an angry Joshi coming your way, YOU ARE WRONG. Move, move, move. Every man, woman, and child for themselves.

I've never been "scared" around a crowd brawl. The closest was trying to pick a direction to get out of the way of MsChif/Kong at a non-SHIMMER show. But then again most of the crowd brawls I've been around were at ECW shows where you the aggressive Atlas Security controlling the situation, and having to force people to get further away.

Lol I remember that too. He went like crashing into the guardrails or something. My dad got Lufi dumped on him. He didn't know they were serious about moving, because he didn't think she'd actually throw her over the guardrails. Silly newb Speaking of the japanese shows, if there's someone like Dump there....even moving might not save you. Just look at her wrong, and bitch is relentless. I remember her chasing a cameraman with a kendostick for a good 5 minutes. Or her clearing an entire section of schoolgirls. Man that'd be awesome to have Del Rey or Kong rip open the guardrails and start threatening people haha.

I've been sick since Monday, so I'm finally getting to wrapping everything up from the show. The ticket stub count was slightly off from what I thought that night. A few stubs were misplaced, plus a few fans didn't have physical tickets in hand for there to be stubs, but were counted. We actually had 217 paid in the building that night, with 247 paid total, so 30 had tickets but didn't show up, which is still a fairly high number for that sort of thing. I'll get to putting together an official results writeup later today.

Did you send anyone like a lot of tickets? Maybe some people felt extra supporty of Shimmer and bought extra tickets.

I bought my GA ticket as soon as they went on sale, and in the process of a moving, i lost the ticket(which i never found). So i had to purchase another GA ticket.
